Missing Turtle
When I was little, I had a pet turtle in a small, open plastic bowl. I loved to move that bowl around from room to room, so my turtle had a different view of the world every day. One day, I had left him on the dining room table, and when I returned after playing outside, my turtle was not in his bowl! I searched and searched everywhere, but I couldn't find him. Winter came and went, and still the turtle's disappearance was a mystery. Then one spring day my mother decided to clean out the hall closet. In the back, behind the winter boots, was my poor little turtle. He had spent his last days in the cozy darkness of the closet. I never had another pet turtle.
Reptiles are cool!
